“Restring as many times a year as you play per week.”
Racquet length, ball type and court size are scaled to the child's stage so they can use proper technique. Using gear that's too big or a ball that's too fast slows learning.
“The right racquet size matters more than the brand.”
The racquet has four sections: head (with the strings), throat, handle and butt cap.
“Hold it by the handle, not the throat.”
Red (foam or low-compression), orange, green and yellow balls. Each slows and lowers the bounce for its stage so children can rally and learn good technique.
“Orange ball bounces lower and slower. That's on purpose.”
How the ball behaves after it hits the ground, depending on the ball's firmness, bounciness and spin.
“Watch the bounce, then move.”

Cones, targets, ladders, hoops, lines and other tools used to make drills clearer and more fun.
“Hit the hoop, win a point.”
Red uses a small court (about 11 × 5 m, net 50 cm for training). Orange uses a mid-size court (18 × 6 m for Orange 2, net 80 cm). Green and yellow use a full court.
“The court grows as the player grows.”
